In SexMagick women writers, working on the theme of magic and erotic power, turn this concept into seven stories of positive transformation, where every story provides not only a healthy erotic charge to the reader, but to the characters whose lives are transformed for the better. Originally released in 1993, SexMagick has been newly repackaged and redesigned for re-release with Volume 2.
Includes stories by:
* S.N. (Shariann) Lewitt * Linda Hooper * Reina Delacroix * Velma Bowen * Cecilia Tan * M.A. Mohanraj
Susie Bright says, "Cecilia Tan is simply one of the most important writers, editors, and innovators in contemporary American erotic literature." Since the publication of Telepaths Don't Need Safewords in 1992, she has been on the cutting edge of the erotic form, often combining elements of fantasy and science fiction in her work. She is also founder and editor of Circlet Press.
RT Book Reviews awarded her Career Achievement in Erotic Romance in 2015 and her novel Slow Surrender (Hachette/Forever, 2013) won the RT Reviewers Choice Award and the Maggie Award for Excellence from GRW in 2013. She has been publishing Daron's Guitar Chronicles as a web serial since 2009 and her Secrets of a Rock Star series (Taking the Lead, Wild Licks, Hard Rhythm) is published by Hachette/Forever. In 2018 Tor Books will launch her urban fantasy/paranormal series, The Vanished Chronicles. In her other life, Cecilia is also the editor of the Baseball Research Journal and publications director for SABR, the Society for American Baseball Research.
This is a collection of 6 short stories, aimed at women with a liking for fantasy and magical settings.
The stories were varied and for the most part, well -written. As an introduction to the variety of erotic fantasy settings available to an author it was an interesting collection, but from a reader's point of view, it suffers from trying to be all things to all women. As a collection, this felt a little scattered.
However, individually the stories are well worth a read and there is enough variety that there will be something here that appeals to you, whatever your particular fancy.
